My Problem with serial reciever ...

[Hermann S. <sch...@fr...>]

Hi,

i have an self-made serial-port reciever and an Phillps RT214 remote
controll. Im on ubuntu 6.06 and i use that to (try to) setup my remote
system. I cant recieve signals from my remote control to setup an
config. But if i run windows with miriam(MiriServer) with
"default/win(lirc)" as config it works fine. What i had done:

1.) i got lirc 0.8 modules sources. then:

2.) sudo m-a prepare
3.) I edit that file
# /etc/lirc/lirc-modules-source.conf
#   lirc-modules-source config file used by Debian GNU/Linux

# Space separated list of lirc kernel drivers to build
LIRC_MODULES=3D"serial"

# It87 module configuration
LIRC_IT87_CFLAGS=3D"UNCONFIGURED"

# Parallel module configuration
LIRC_PARALLEL_PORT=3D"UNCONFIGURED"
LIRC_PARALLEL_IRQ=3D"UNCONFIGURED"
LIRC_PARALLEL_TIMER=3D"UNCONFIGURED"

# Serial module configuration
LIRC_SERIAL_PORT=3D"0x3f8"
LIRC_SERIAL_IRQ=3D"4"
LIRC_SERIAL_CFLAGS=3D" -DLIRC_SERIAL_SOFTCARRIER"

# Sir module configuration
LIRC_SIR_PORT=3D"UNCONFIGURED"
LIRC_SIR_IRQ=3D"UNCONFIGURED"
LIRC_SIR_CFLAGS=3D"UNCONFIGURED"
4.)
sudo m-a a-i lirc-modules-source
sudo depmod -ae
5.)
sudo setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none
6.) edit
# /etc/serial.conf
#
/dev/ttyS0 uart none
7.)
sudo modprobe lirc_serial
lsmod | grep lirc
=20
##works fine i get
lirc_serial            13696  0
lirc_dev               15524  1 lirc_serial
8.) edited
# /etc/lirc/hardware.conf
#
# Arguments which will be used when launching lircd
LIRCD_ARGS=3D""

#Don't start lircmd even if there seems to be a good config file
#START_LIRCMD=3Dfalse

#Try to load appropriate kernel modules
LOAD_MODULES=3Dtrue

# Run "lircd --driver=3Dhelp" for a list of supported drivers.
DRIVER=3D"default"
# If DEVICE is set to /dev/lirc and devfs is in use /dev/lirc/0 will be
# automatically used instead
DEVICE=3D"/dev/lirc0"

LIRCMD_CONF=3D""
9.)
sudo /etc/init.d/lirc start

10.) !!! that the problem
now i try to setup my remote with:
irrecord -d /dev/lirc0 mylirc.conf

but after some enters :
Don't stop pressing buttons until two lines of dots (2x80) have been
generated.

Press RETURN now to start recording.
irrecord: no data for 10 secs, aborting
irrecord: gap not found, can't continue

^^ THATS the problem, what did i wrong, and why its working with miriam und=
er windows,=20
with the stupid defalut setting where  choose "default/win(lirc)" what tell=
s me that,
it has to work with (withoutwin)lirc :)

I hope somebody can help me, i using com 1 with an simple selfmade serial-r=
eciever like u can find
10x how-to build serial reciever.
